Seeing that Luo Qing and the other two still hadn’t returned, Yang Xiaotian continued to operate the furnace, refining the second Four Symbols Spirit Pill.

With the experience of having just refined a supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pill, this time Yang Xiaotian found the process even more relaxed and effortless.

Before long, the second supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pill was successfully refined.

While Yang Xiaotian was refining the supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pill, Liao Kun and Zhang Jingrong, along with the other three, were huddled together discussing Yang Xiaotian.

Throughout the journey, Luo Qing had been exceedingly respectful to Yang Xiaotian, behaving almost like a servant, which made Liao Kun, Zhang Jingrong, and the others feel quite uncomfortable.

After all, Luo Qing was their Sect Master and also a Martial King at the pinnacle of the tenth level. In their view, even if Yang Xiaotian had helped their Sect Master restore his dantian and cultivation, there was no need for such excessive deference.

Hence, after arriving in Divine Sword City, Zhang Jingrong couldn’t resist going out to inquire about Yang Xiaotian’s background.

“How did your inquiries go?” Liao Kun asked as soon as he saw Zhang Jingrong return.

Zhang Jingrong’s face was a mix of emotions, her voice extremely grave, “This Yang Xiaotian is no ordinary person!”

It was more than just ‘no ordinary person.’

Zhang Jingrong had thought that, no matter how extraordinary Yang Xiaotian was, he was still just an eight-year-old child. However, upon making inquiries, she was startled.

No ordinary person? Seeing Zhang Jingrong’s expression, Liao Kun and the others exchanged glances.

“What do you mean?” Chen Yishan couldn’t help but ask.

“This Yang Xiaotian, he possesses Twin Super Martial Spirits!” Zhang Jingrong said, looking at Liao Kun and the others with a peculiar expression.

“What, Twin Super Martial Spirits!” Liao Kun and the others exclaimed in surprise.

A Supreme Martial Spirit was an incredible genius even in the Tiandou Imperial Kingdom.

Let alone Twin Super Martial Spirits.

“Moreover, his Twin Super Martial Spirits are of the growth type,” Zhang Jingrong continued, “He has the potential to reach level twelve in the future.”

“Growth type!” Liao Kun and the others were stunned.

“That’s not all. He is also a terrifying martial arts genius. His Martial Soul Awakening occurred just a few months ago, yet he has already mastered the Phantom Sword Technique to the Perfection Realm, and his Vast Sea Sword Technique has reached the Summit Mastery. Moreover, he has thoroughly comprehended all thirty Stone Swords of the Divine Sword Academy!” Zhang Jingrong kept on saying, and even she couldn’t help but tremble once again as she spoke.

“What?!”

“Vast Sea Sword Technique at Summit Mastery!”

“He comprehended all thirty Stone Swords of the Divine Sword Academy!”

Liao Kun, Chen Yishan, and the others were incredulous.

They certainly knew about the Divine Sword Academy and understood what comprehending all thirty Stone Swords implied.

“Then he, is he not an Elder of the Divine Sword Academy’s Sword Hall?” Liao Kun stuttered.

An eight-year-old kid had become an Elder of the Sword Hall of the Divine Sword Academy?

If it wasn’t for hearing the account directly from Zhang Jingrong, they wouldn’t have been able to believe that an eight-year-old could be an Elder of the Sword Hall of the Divine Sword Academy.

The Sword Hall of the Divine Sword Academy held great prestige, not just within the academy, but also in the surrounding nations.

Becoming an Elder of the Sword Hall of the Divine Sword Academy was extremely difficult, yet an eight-year-old had achieved it.

“Moreover, he only took seven days to fully comprehend all thirty Stone Swords,” Zhang Jingrong said. As she spoke, even she couldn’t help but feel her heart stir once again.

Seven days to fully comprehend all thirty Stone Swords of the Divine Sword Academy!

How terrifying is this!

Liao Kun, Chen Yishan, and a few others were dumbfounded, unable to utter a word.

“Seven, seven days?” After a long while, Liao Kun was so dry-mouthed he could barely speak.

“The Divine Sword City Lord asserted that Yang Xiaotian could become the number one expert in Divine Sea Country within at most ten years!” Zhang Jingrong said, trying to calm herself down, but it was impossible.

“This Yang Xiaotian is remarkable,” Zhang Jingrong noted with complex emotions, “No wonder the Sect Master is so respectful and willing to follow him.”

“So what do we do next?” Chen Yishan asked Liao Kun.

Among the five, Liao Kun had the strongest abilities and the best talent.

If the Red Saber Sect did not perish, Liao Kun was likely to become the next Sect Master.

“I owe a debt of gratitude to the Sect Master; I am loyal only to him,” Liao Kun muttered thoughtfully.

The others nodded in agreement.

Years later, Liao Kun and Zhang Jingrong, looking back, realized just how wise their decision had been at that time.

When Yang Xiaotian succeeded in refining the second premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill, Luo Qing, Ate, and Ali returned as expected, having purchased a large group of Acquired tenth stage peak slaves, thirty-seven in total.

The thirty-seven slaves cost Yang Xiaotian almost eighty thousand gold.

Yang Xiaotian was satisfied after examining the situation of the thirty-seven people.

Although the thirty-seven individuals were not on par with Ate, Ali, and Luo Qing, there were a few among them who had quite a good foundation, both in terms of their Martial Souls and their martial arts.

Immediately, Yang Xiaotian selected a few cultivation techniques from Hong Feng’s cave residence and passed them on to the thirty-seven people, instructing them to cultivate, and also provided each of them with a portion of the premium Foundation Building Spiritual Liquid.

Of course, before passing on the techniques, Yang Xiaotian made the thirty-seven take an elixir to enforce control.

With so many secrets, Yang Xiaotian had no choice but to use this method to ensure their absolute loyalty for the time being.

After the thirty-three individuals ingested the premium Foundation Building Spiritual Liquid and began cultivating, Yang Xiaotian summoned Luo Qing to his yard and took out the premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill.

“Premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill!” Luo Qing exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the elixir in Yang Xiaotian’s hand.

“Correct, the premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill,” Yang Xiaotian replied with a smile, then threw it to Luo Qing, “Take it and cultivate, see if you can break through to the Martial Ancestor Realm.”

Holding the premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill in his hand, Luo Qing was deeply moved. Was this really for him to ingest and cultivate?

He looked at Yang Xiaotian and then bowed deeply, “My lord, rest assured, with this pill, I will definitely break through to the Martial Ancestor Realm this time.”

In reality, even without the premium Four Symbols Spirit Pill, he was confident of breaking through to the Martial Ancestor Realm within a month; now, he was even more assured.

“Good!” Yang Xiaotian nodded and smiled, then handed Luo Qing five elixirs, saying, “Give these five elixirs to Liao Kun and the others. If they are willing to serve me, let them take the pills.”

Luo Qing’s heart tightened, and he respectfully replied, “Please rest assured, my lord. I will definitely persuade Liao Kun and the others,” then he retreated.

Meanwhile, inside the Divine Sword Academy, Yang Zhong was crying to Cheng Beibei and Hu Xing, “Senior Sister, Senior Brother Hu, that Yang Xiaotian is too arrogant. Relying on his martial might, he does whatever he wants, and he grievously injured my father for no reason. My father is his great uncle, yet he was capable of striking with such severity. Such a person is heartless and ungrateful!”

“Please, Senior Sister and Senior Brother Hu, stand up for me.”

Upon hearing this, Hu Xing’s face darkened, “Such a person indeed does not deserve to be an elder of our academy’s Sword Hall!”

“I really don’t know what the academy was thinking, making such a rule, becoming a Sword Hall Elder just by comprehending thirty Stone Swords,” Cheng Beibei was also indignant, “Yang Xiaotian is just an Acquired realm practitioner; he can’t even beat me, so what makes him qualified to be a Sword Hall Elder?”

Cheng Beibei was the top student of the first year, with a strength at the peak of the Acquired tenth stage.
